Description: Extra Gloss Protection is a durable, easy to use sealant that forms a barrier, sealing polish in and dirt out. Surfaces protected with sealants are easier to keep clean as dirt finds it harder to stick to this slippery surface. Extra Gloss Protection is not a polish, so will not remove or improve the appearance of scratches, swirls or dull paint. If your paint has these problems use Super Resin Polish first. Pro Tip: If you use Extra Gloss Protection there you don't need to use High Definition Wax as well.
--- How to use: 1. Apply to paintwork after it has been polished with Super Resin Polish.
2. Shake well and apply the sealant to a soft cloth or applicator.
3. Apply sparingly to paintwork, ensuring that a thin even layer is over all painted surfaces.
4. Do not apply to unpainted rubber or unpainted plastic trim.
5. Allow the residue to dry and buff with a Hi-Tech Finishing Cloth. [Tip: Once applied leave Extra Gloss Protection for as long as possible to allow the resins to continue to cure and work even better]
6. Wash regularly with Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner. This will remove dirt but not the Extra Gloss Protection.

Description: It isnt the most glamorous task, but every external clean begins with a really good, thorough car wash. Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner is a pH neutral formulation. It is packed with active ingredients which clean your vehicle, without stripping away any polish or wax you have previously applied. Just add two capfuls to a 10L bucket of water. The shampoo can be used with warm or cold water and combines cleaning power with suds, allowing the sponge to glide over surfaces. Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner contains a water repellent film. As you rinse off the shampoo the film stays behind causing the water to sheet off the surface, helping you to dry the car quicker. Finish off the wash process with a Microfibre Drying Towel or if this is a maintenance wash, a coat of Aqua Wax for the perfect finish. Pro Tip: Do not wash your car in direct sunlight, the shampoo may dry on and you will end up rushing the job.
--- How to use: 1. Shake well. Pour 20 ml (2 capfuls) into a bucket and add 10 litres of water.
2. Hose bodywork first to rinse away excess dirt. Sponge one side of the car with shampoo working downwards from the roof, rinse and complete the other half, or if working in the shade you can wash the whole car rinsing once at the end.
3. Use a light parallel sponging movement and do not allow the shampoo to dry before rinsing. Keep sponge clean by returning it to the bucket regularly.
4. Rinse well with clean water and dry with a Hi-Tech Microfibre Drying Towel or Hi-Tech Aqua-Dry to prevent water spots.
Wash with 2 buckets system

Description: During warm weather the road surface can disintegrate and small specks of tar are flicked onto your bodywork. These spots show up especially well on light coloured cars and can ruin otherwise perfect paint. Intensive Tar Remover will also remove adhesive residues, fuel stains from paintwork and tree sap. It can be used on the interior of your car to remove ink, chewing gum, glue residue and oil stains from seats, carpets and hard surfaces. Pro Tip: Use to remove polish and wax residue from rubber and plastic trim, as well as road tax glue adhesive from windscreen.
--- How to use: Windscreen use to remove roadtax adhesive: 1. Pull off the old roadtax from windscreen.
2. Put a 5-7 drops of Intensive Tar Remover on a clean cloth.
3. Touch the adhesive area with the product on the cloth for 1-2minutes.
4. Gently rub the adhesive area with the product on the cloth to remove the adhesive residue.
5. Once adhesive and its residue begin to run, wipe off all residue from the windscreen.
6. Spray 1-2 times of Interior Shampoo on the area to remove the petroleum odor and oily surface with a clean cloth.
Exterior use: 1. Apply directly onto tar spots using a clean cotton cloth.
2. Tar spots will dissolve and begin to run. Allow 1-2 minutes contact time and wipe or wash off. Heavy deposits of wax, oil, fuel stains or adhesive residues may require gentle rubbing.
Interior use: 1. Pre-test fabric colourfastness on small inconspicuous area. Apply to a clean cotton cloth and work inwards on the stain.
2. Gently rub with a clean cloth to remove residue and leave treated surface to dry.

Description: Paint Renovator is for use on scratches, scuffs, heavily oxidised or faded paintwork. If you have a scratch or paintwork blemish, wash and apply Super Resin Polish firmly to restore the area. If this does not repair the area sufficiently, move up the abrasive scale to Paint Renovator. Paint Renovator is not an all over polish; it should only be used on specific areas of paintwork damage. Paint Renovator is suitable for hand use but should not be applied by machine. Pro Tip: If your scratch is so deep that metal or grey primer can be seen you are going to need to repair that by repainting the area or further damage could occur, such as rust or further loss of paint. Paint Renovator is silicone free and will not interfere with repainting.
--- How to use: 1. Always attempt to restore finish with Super Resin Polish first.
2. Shake well and apply to a cool, clean, dry surface with a soft cotton cloth or Perfect Palm Applicator using parallel strokes. Increase the pressure to remove specific scratches or stains. Decrease pressure to improve surface gloss. Check repair progress regularly.
3. Remove residue with a clean cloth. Finally, polish with Super Resin Polish to maximise gloss, preserve the unprotected surface and remove any remaining marks.

Description: The Surface Detailing Clay Kit removes all bonded contaminants from your paintwork allowing for a deeper, more durable shine and is an essential step if you are serious about paintwork preparation. Some paintwork problems cant be washed away with shampoo, we refer to these as bonded contaminants. You can feel the rough areas with your fingertips. They require detailing clay to safely remove them from your paintwork. Once the car is fully clayed it will be very smooth to the touch and ready for High Definition Cleanser or a coat of polish and wax. The Surface Detailing Clay Kit contains Rapid Detailer, detailing clay, Super Resin Polish, Perfect Polishing Cloth and a microfibre cloth. Pro Tip: Look at the clay as you use it. As it becomes dirty knead it thoroughly and fold it back in on itself to present a clean surface.
Package includes: 500ml Rapid Detailer, 100g clay bar, 100ml Super Resin Polish, 1pc Autoglym Microfiber Cloth, 1 pc Autoglym Perfect Polishing Cloth.
--- How to use: 1. Wash the vehicle with Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner and dry.
2. Pull off a piece of clay and knead into a pad about the size of a large coin.
3. Ensure the vehicle is cool. Spray a generous amount of Rapid Detailer onto the clay and onto an area about 50 centimetres square. Gently move the clay over the surface with a backward and forward motion using only light finger pressure.
4. Once the area feels smooth to the touch, wipe away any excess Rapid Detailer with the blue microfibre cloth and repeat the process on a new area, overlapping slightly with the previous section.

Description: Aqua Wax is for quickly topping up existing sealants and wax following a wash. It is perfect if you are in a hurry and only adds a couple of minutes to the overall washing and drying time. Aqua Wax can be applied to all exterior surfaces, including paint, rubber, plastic and glass. Aqua Wax contains real carnauba wax and allows you to wax and dry your car at the same time. It has the protective benefits of a hard wax, but can be applied in a fraction of the time. Aqua Wax is not a polish, so will not remove or improve the appearance of scratches, swirls or dull paint. If your paint has these problems use Super Resin Polish. Pro Tip: Do not over apply Aqua Wax or it can be difficult to buff. 2-4 sprays per panel are all that is required.
Package includes: 500ml Aqua Wax, 2pcs Microfiber cloths.
Description: (replaced by the newer UHD Wax) High Definition Wax is quite simply Autoglym's finest product. The result of 40 years of product research and development, this expertly crafted wax is individually filled and inspected before being carefully air cooled ensuring it is suitable for use on the worlds finest vehicles. High Definition Wax contains a carefully balanced, yet complex blend of polymers, carnauba and microcrystalline waxes. Treated surfaces display a very high gloss combined with exceptional resistance to environmental contaminants including salt, detergents, UV light, acid rain and industrial fallout. The product is completely free of abrasives, water and emulsifiers. This complete kit contains 150g High Definition Wax, two High Definition Applicators and a Hi-Tech Finishing Cloth. Pro Tip: This easy to use wax should be applied as thinly and evenly as possible. If your wax smears as you buff it off, you have used too much. If you use High Definition Wax there is no need to use Extra Gloss Protection as well.
--- How to use: 1. Inspect your clean and dry paintwork for light scratches and contamination, treat with Super Resin Polish, Surface Detailing Clay Kit or High Definition Cleanser if required.
2. Apply a light coating of wax to the High Definition Applicator and then apply to the paintwork in a light circular motion until all of the painted surfaces have a thin even layer. Do not apply a thick coat, this not only leads to wasted product but may make the wax difficult to buff later.
3. Do not apply to unpainted rubber or unpainted plastic trim.
4. Leave wax film to dry and cure on the surface for 10 - 15 minutes, then buff to a high gloss, using the supplied Hi-Tech Finishing Cloth, turning the cloth frequently.
5. Wash regularly with Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner. This will remove dirt but not the High Definition Wax.

Description: Ultra Deep Shine is a polish for use on black and dark coloured cars suffering from excessive swirling, fine scratches or holograms.
Ultra Deep Shine is an 'all-in-one' formula that polishes and protects in one. For this reason Ultra Deep Shine should not be followed by Extra Gloss Protection or High Definition Wax.

Q. I have a non-metallic red Audi with a small scratch on the boot door - what would you recommend to cover/fix the scratch? A. When scratches occur in paintwork, depending on how deep the scratch will determine what course of action is available to you. As a rule of thumb, if you can get your finger nail into the scratch then you will not be able to repair the area by hand and will need professional advice or a paint pot. If the scratch is not that deep then Super Resin Polish is very effective at removing scratches. Just apply a little more pressure than normal to the area and regularly check your progress.
Q. How to restore faded paintwork? A. Oxidised paintwork can sometimes be improved by using Super Resin Polish. If this does not provide the desired result, then you may need to use a more aggresive product such as paint renovator.

I have heard from customers using Super Resin Polish on the same vehicle for 20 years with no issues other than gleaming paintwork.

To prevent and repair oxidised headlights use either Super Resin Polish or Ultra Deep Shine, just use whatever Autoglym product you are polishing the paintwork with. Something to bear in mind is that this damage can sometimes occur on the inside of the headlight cover, and is therefore inaccessible without disassembling the headlight unit which you should not attempt unless you know what you are doing.

Q. I have a new 5 series BMW - what is the best way to keep the alloy wheels clean and protect them? A. New and regularly maintained alloys can be cleaned using Bodywork Shampoo Conditioner that is also used to clean the bodywork. It is only when alloys are neglected and stubborn brake dust is allowed to accumulate that a dedicated wheel cleaner is needed. In this case I would recommend Custom Wheel Cleaner. As to protecting them, Extra Gloss Protection is very good at keeping dirt off of alloys and making future cleaning easier. For more information on these and all Autoglym products visit the Product Range area of the website.

2. Apply with a small piece of sponge or a soft cloth. Rub firmly to ensure an even coating. To treat complex grilles, apply using a small paintbrush.

Hi bro, for the Bumper & Trim Gel and the Vinvyl Rubber Care, it does not come with cloth or pad. We can use any microfiber or cotton cloth to apply both. For Bumper & Trim gel, I'd recommend you use tissue, as the gel is very sticky and hard to wash off.

May I know what's the difference between Autoglym bumper&trim gel and Autoglym Vinyl and Rubber Care?
Sure bro,
Bumper & Trim Gel is more suited to be used on exterior rubber/bumper/plastics area, not suitable to be used in car interior. Whereas for Vinyl & Rubber care, it is more suited to be used inside the car, like our dashboard, door trims, window rubber, door plastics etc. You can also use it on exterior, but it will not last as long as Bumper & trim gel on the exterior.

Hi whats the difference between "Bumper and Trim gel" and "Vinyl and Rubber care"?
bro, depends on where u wish to apply on, if you wish to protect ur dashboard, door panels (interior), window rubber (which located inside the car), or plastics area in the car, then you should use Vinyl and Rubber Care.
if you wish to refurnish the exterior bumper, or exterior window rubbers or plastics areas, then use Bumper and Trim Gel.

Description: A super durable tyre gel that leaves either a high gloss or natural satin finish.
Perfectly dressed tyres complete the look of your clean car. This high viscosity gel is a long lasting, sweet scented tyre dressing. It contains active silicone polymers which contribute to the depth of shine and durability.
To ensure precise and even coverage apply with our Perfect Polish Applicator.
It can leave you with a high gloss or natural ‘new tyre’ finish, whichever you prefer.
--- How to use: 1. For best results ensure your tyres are clean and dry. Apply a small amount of High Performance Tyre Gel to a Perfct Polish Applicator. 2. Work the gel into the contours of the tyre wall, applying more product as required. 3. Leave for a few minutes to dry for a high gloss finish or immediately wipe over with a clean microfibre cloth for a satin sheen.
PRO TIP: For an ultra-high gloss finish apply a second coat once the first has dried.
Due to slippery characteristics use only on recommended areas. Do not use on motorcycle tyres.
FAQs: Q: How does the product differ from Instant Tyre Dressing? A: Instant Tyre Dressing is a sprayable liquid that can be applied to wet or dry tyres. High Performance Tyre Gel can be left for a high sheen or wiped for a more natural matt finish.
Q: What should I use to apply this product?
A: New High Performance Tyre Gel is applied with the Autoglym Perfect Polish Applicator. This applicator allows for a more detailed application and the gel is proven to offer a longer-lasting finish. Like Instant Tyre Dressing, no buffing generates high gloss finish, but wiping with a cloth whilst the gel is still wet creates a more natural satin finish.
Q: What happens if High Performance Tyre Gel is used on wet tyres? A: We recommend that freshly-washed tyres are allowed to dry or at least be wiped dry prior to application. This ensures that High Performance Tyre Gel dries evenly and leaves a consistently excellent finish on the tyres. Applying to wet wheels may result in an uneven, patchy finish.
Q: Can this product be used on motorcycles or bicycles? A: No. This product leaves a gloss finish which can be slippery – do not use on motorcycle or bicycle tyres or control surfaces of any vehicle.

Description: A fast acting compound that will remove tarnishing from brass, copper, stainless steel, chrome, aluminium and unlacquered aluminium alloys leaving them gleaming.
Formulated to tackle heavily tarnished metals, Metal Polish restores surfaces to their original finish and protects them with a layer of wax.
Suitable for brass, copper, stainless steel, chrome, aluminium and unlacquered aluminium. Do not use on chromed plastic, lacquered alloy wheels, mirror finished metals or chrome plate in new condition. For any of these surfaces use Super Resin Polish instead.
Once polished, these surfaces can be further protected with a wax or sealant.
--- How to use: 1. Shake well, apply to a soft cloth and rub back and forth over the metal surface. 2. As the metal is cleaned there may be a black build-up which can be buffed away with a microfibre cloth. 3. Increase the pressure over any stubborn areas.
Pro Tip: Do not use Metal Polish on modern chromed plastics, lacquered alloy wheels, mirror finished metals or chrome plate in new condition as these surfaces are softer. Use Super Resin Polish on these surfaces instead.
FAQs: Q: Can I apply Metal Polish to my exhaust? A: You can apply Metal Polish to any metal exhaust pipes.
Q: Can I use Metal Polish on metal trims? A: Metal Polish can be used on genuine metal trims however some trims can appear to be metal or chrome but are made from plastic. If they are made of plastic use Super Resin Polish instead. As long as your trims are genuine metal, you can apply metal polish. If you are working in a tight area, be sure to protect any surrounding painted or plastic surfaces with masking tape before use.

Ultra High Definition Shampoo is a luxurious, high foaming shampoo that glides across paintwork for an effortless experience. The all new, pH neutral formula gently removes contaminants and road traffic film to produce a high-gloss finish that’s incredibly smooth to the touch. That’s the Autoglym way, always has been.
--- How to use: 1. Shake well. Pour 4 capfuls into a bucket and add 10 litres of warm or cold water. 2. Hose bodywork to rinse away excess dirt. Always work on a cool surface, shampooing the car from the roof down, moving the sponge or wash mitt in straight lines. Do not allow the shampoo to dry on the car. 3.

FAQs: Q: Is this shampoo pH neutral? A: Yes
Q: Can I use this product through a pressure washer? A: This shampoo has not been developed or tested for use through a pressure washer. Its viscosity may not be compatible with many pressure washers. We would recommend Autoglym Pressure Wash for use through a pressure washer.
Q: What is the benefit of the additional foam? A: Ultra High Definition Shampoo produces an abundance of soft, dense foam. The foam lasts for longer in the bucket and on the car. The foam coverage not only indicates where you have washed (reducing the likelihood of areas being missed), but the excellent cling time also reassures you that the shampoo is loosening and removing dirt and traffic film.

--- How to use: 1. Inspect your clean and dry paintwork for contamination or light scratches, and if required, treat with Surface Detailing Clay Kit or Super Resin Polish.
2. Dampen the white side of the supplied wax applicator. Gently dab the applicator on the wax in the pot and then apply to clean, dry paintwork in a light circular motion, leaving a thin even layer on all painted surfaces. Do not over apply as this may make the wax difficult to buff later. Do not apply to unpainted rubber or unpainted plastic trim.
3. Leave wax film to dry on the surface for 10 - 15 minutes. Buff to a high gloss with the supplied Hi-Tech Finishing Cloth, turning it frequently during use. 4. To maintain the finish, wash regularly with Ultra High Definition Shampoo. It will remove dirt but not the Ultra High Definition Wax.
After use, wash the applicator in a mild detergent, rinse and allow to air dry.

It’s why Ultra High Definition Wax blends the finest ingredients, including Carnauba, to go beyond showroom shine to a whole new level of finish.
Q: How is Ultra High Definition Wax different from High Definition Wax? A: Our Research & Development team continue to develop new formulations with the latest technologies and raw materials available. Our new Ultra High Definition wax not only generates an even deeper shine, but its softer composition makes it easier to apply and buff. We have also developed a new ergonomic applicator to further ease application of the wax.
Q: Does Ultra High Definition Wax contain Carnauba Wax? A: The original High Definition Wax contained Carnauba Wax. Ultra High Definition Wax contains a different, purer organically refined grade of Carnauba Wax.
Q: Can I layer Ultra High Definition Wax? A: Yes. The wax can easily be layered to offer increased protection. If you are looking for increased protection it is important that you apply thin layers of wax than one thick layer of wax. Application and removal becomes significantly more challenging if you apply too much wax. A thin layer is all that is required.
Q: Is it ok to apply Ultra High Definition Wax on top of Super Resin Polish or Ultra Deep Shine? A:Yes. We would encourage you polish your paintwork with Super Resin Polish in advance of Ultra High Definition Wax to ensure it is in excellent condition prior to waxing. However, we do not recommend Ultra High Definition Wax is used on top of Ultra Deep Shine.
Q: Can I apply Ultra High Definition wax on top of Extra Gloss Protection? A: There is no real benefit to adding this stage to your car care process. Using Ultra high Definition Wax on top of Extra Gloss Protection will only enhance durability marginally. It won’t harm the finish, but we do not recommend using Ultra High Definition Wax in conjunction with Extra Gloss Protection. It is an alternative way of waxing and protecting your paintwork.
Q: How do I wash the Ultra High definition Wax applicator? A: Firstly remove any excess wax, and then wash with warm water and a small amount of mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly and then allow to air dry. If machine washing, wash separately from clothing.
